I've created this thread to keep track of my journey to earning my first hundred dollar online. It's part of my goals for the new year. I believe it should be documented to make me accountable and also track my progress.

I'm not entirely new to making money online. I remember making $80 from AdSense in a month but that account got banned for no reason at all.

I've decided to start a website that produces content related to Scholarships, Jobs and Education in my country. I'm starting out on the Blogger platform and maybe i could migrate to WordPress later on.

My monetization strategy will be a combination of sponsored posts and Google AdSense. I'll document my traffic statistics here, the link-building strategies i'm applying and my income monthly.
